Beagle Pictures Description: The Beagle has soft brown eyes that betray their warm personality but do not reveal their admirable courage and stamina. A truly trustworthy friend can be found in a Beagle and they make a great family pet as they are eager to romp and play. The Beagle is a good watchdog as they can be trained to hunt. Known as the "singing Beagle," they have a sweet hunting voice, but if left alone may howl. Training will alleviate this problem. They will adapt well to a home or kennel environment, but new owners should be aware of natural hunting instincts and they should not be left alone for long periods of time.

Care and Training:
Grooming a Beagle consists of massaging the skin with your fingers
or brushing with a firm bristle brush. Bathe a Beagle only when necessary
with a mild or dry shampoo. Keep a check on the Beagle's ears for signs
of infection and trim the nails regularly. Exercise is needed on a leash as
the Beagle has a tendency to roam. A large back yard will take care of most
of your Beagle's exercise requirements. They will respond well to basic obedience
